Did Greater Manchester have bullfights in the 60s?

In 1964, the 麻豆社's Fyfe Robertson travelled to Rochdale to meet the Lancashire matadors.

And with it being Britain they couldn't really use a live bull but the people of Rochdale were not stopped by a minor detail such as that!

In place of the beast a man ran round with a one wheeled bicycle, with horns instead of handlebars and made bull like noises.

麻豆社 Radio Manchester has the story.
